Community Webinar: Understanding LGBTQ Grief and Cultivating Inclusive Support
7th December 2023 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
Join us Thursday December 7th at 12pm ET for an insightful and impactful webinar that focuses on inclusive support for the LGBTQ+ community in grief. This workshop is designed for individuals in end-of-life care, mental health professionals, grief counselors, and community members who wish to become better allies to LGBTQ+ individuals navigating the complexities of grief.
Throughout the webinar, we will explore the unique challenges of grief within the LGBTQ+ community which can often go unrecognized or invalidated. From societal stigma and discrimination to the specific types of loss that are often encountered, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the difficult layers and experiences faced by LGBTQ+ individuals during the grieving process. We will also explore ways to create a sense of safety and belonging, allowing for authentic expression and healing through culturally competent practices and inclusive language.
Attendees will leave with increased confidence in their ability to support LGBTQ+ individuals through the grieving process and contribute to a more compassionate and understanding world.
Join us on this journey of learning, empathy, and growth as we work together to create more inclusive and supportive spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals navigating grief.
